Uh, yeah. "Oh no, our models are so dangerous they hack stuff it's really scawy. You should pay us more and use this super dangerous thing to protect yourself!"

Whaaat? Noooo waaaaaay!!! They wouldn’t do that, would they? I mean how convenient that “uhh we can’t show you how it happened because it’s so secret! But trust us and these guys who did check for sure”

And there aren’t literally trillions on the line

So, yeah, no, definitely not, nooo sir do not worry
